Dr. Sameer, why you are not taking up my daughter's case?
Please help her, I sincerely requesting that to you. I have been highly impressed by all the cases you have been handling at ABC forum. I am ready to share all the questions you have regarding the case.
Her skin is getting ugly day by day, she will be very depressed once she will realize her looks.
Please take this case.

sameervermani last decade
Thankyou so much for taking up the case. You can't imagine how much it means to me and my family. Thanks a ton.

To answer your questions -
She will turn 4 in october.

Her temperament -
She is mostly a happy girl.
Very adamant on her decisions. If she has decided she is not going to do something, nothing can be done to change her mind.
If she decides on what she is going to wear today, you can't make her wear something else. If you do, she will cry like anything and won't move from there, unless she wore what she wants. She will be dancing with happiness after that.
She is little bit shy, lesser than her older sister.
She also doesn't like to go near noisy kids, or more than 1-2 kids in a group.

Her diet -
She doesn't like to try new new foods. She doesn't eat cooked vegetables. Just very few raw vegetables, in very less quantity, carrots, cucumber, beans.
She eats spinach paratha, aloo paratha, milk and cereal, daal & roti with butter and dahi.
chips, popcorn, biscuits, cookies, crackers & cheese.
fruits- strawberries, watermelon, pear, apple, grapes.
Whenever I give her food, she starts itching her body. She doesn't seem to be much intersted in food.
Her pediatrician recommended allergy test at age 1, and we found out she is allergic to eggs, peanuts & all other nuts.

I had to take antibiotic when I was 2 months pregnant. My Gynecologist said that it is a very mild one, and should not harm the baby. I had strep throat infection then. I had not taken antibiotics before that in many years, and not even after. I had been healthy overall other than just minor seasonal cold & headaches. My headaches are mostly if my meal is delayed, and i get it on back of my head on left side.
I have many black moles(Til in Hindi) on my skin, almost everywhere, almost 10 on my face, i hav ethem from childhood. They are dark black. Also, I get angry very easily.


Her growth -
She is 3 yrs 10 months old, but looks like 2 & half yrs old. Her height is so short. she is not too thin, and not too fat either, BMI seems normal according to her height.
Also, she started walking at 19 months of age.
Her communication is fine, but speech is not very clear. Like 'K' &'T' both sound like 'TH'. D & G also sound same. She is good with words, and expressing herself.


Her skin -
She is very itchy. She has been getting rashes on her skin since she is born. It used to be mostly on inner side of elbows, and inner side of knees. But now it has spread all over her body. Her skin all over feels grainy, she itches until it bleeds. older skin peeling off, new skin coming in has become a regular process with her. On her clothes, specially on her whote undershirt, i see some dead skin sometimes. At few places her skin has thickened - neck, elbows, wrists, hands. If she goes in Sun, it gets really really bad. This severe allergic reaction to Sun started from this summer. She didn't have that before.

Nights are worse, going to bed is not easy for her, she itches a lot, and wakes up atleast 3-4 times in night because of itch. I keep the bed clean, all cotton, and keep changing it regularly.
She likes to take bath and play in water.

To control her itch -
I use Eucerin, Aquaphor, Hydrocortisone, and aniti-histamine syrups Claritin, in this order depending on on how severe her condition is.

She took one dose on Sulphur 200Ck, as suggested by one of the doctors here. Her skin cleared up a bit after that, day time itch is also better, but night time is still uncontrollable.

She is constipated. goes once in 3-4 days, occasionally i have to give her laxative.

Dear Dr. Sameer,
Hope you are doung great.

I just wanted to check if you need any more information?

Thanks.

Please inform, if she has any feelings of jealousy towards sibling, or insist that she is the only one getting full attention ?

How does she respond to restrictions or authority ?
 
sameervermani last decade
Jealousy -
If her older sibling gets hurt, and i pay extra attention to take care of the sibling, she will come and say 'I am hurt here'. I know she is lying, but she tries to say it with full confidence, and fake cries, and tries to maek it as real as possible.
She wants the first attention on everything compared to her older sibling. Like, if I am calling both of them for something, she will try to be always the first one to reach to beat her sister. If she is teh second one, she cries like anything.
She goes to swimming, and does it only in 1 or 2 certain positions. If I tell her to try in different position, and move her in that position, she screams so loud that people start looking at her as I did something so harsh to her.
Restrictions and Authority - if done with extra love then she is fine, or she does it to prove herself more co-operative than her older sister. If older sister is not involved then its hard.
Like, in morning, if she is not finishing her milk, and we tell her that I am going to leave you at home alone, that doesn't work with her. She knows that we'll not do that. And she never finishes her milk.
Any more questions?
Also as I mentioned, i gave her Sulphur 200C on saturday morning. There is some visible change on her skin, it looks clear than before, less itchy during the day. But Nights are still same, wakes up 3-4 times because of itch. Her rashes have reduced, skin is peeling off, slight improvement on thickening areas too. lots of dark & light patches on skin. not as grainy as before.

Thanks a lot again for your attention on this case. God Bless you.
 
to_be_cured last decade
Also wanted to add, she gets along very well with her sibling too, they play nicely together for hours. When older sibling is trying to ride a bike, she is watchful and caring for her to tell as soon as she reaches closer to the road.
 
to_be_cured last decade
What about the rashes ? Are they worse on the left side of her body ?
 
sameervermani last decade
Dear Sameer,

It is pretty much same all over. Same on both arms, elbows and hands, same on both thighs, and legs. So its not worse on left side.

Her face looks clear, and I haven't seen her clear face like this before in this summer atleast. God's grace hopefully it will only get better & better now.
 
to_be_cured last decade
Please wait as you have given her Sulphur 200c.

Update me in 2 weeks from the 200c dose.

Do not give any further doses.
 
sameervermani last decade
Thanks Sameer. I'll update you in 2 weeks.

Meanwhile, is there any thing that can or should be given for her constipation?
Actually both of my girls are constipated.
 
to_be_cured last decade
Nothing should be given , let Sulph work.
 
sameervermani last decade
Dear Dr. Sameer,

There has been some improvement in her skin on tummy/chest and her back. Earlier it was very grainy like sandpaper, and very dry. I can say there is 20% improvement. The base skin is darker in colour and the pores on top are lighter. It has started to blend in a bit. Arms, shoulders, neck,legs and wrists are still full of rashes, but 20% better than before. She still itches until it bleeds. She also got 1-2 white blisters behind the knees and on wrists. Still wakes up in night 2-3 times because of itch, and cries badly, it takes approximately 30 mins of rubbing time all over her skin before she can go back to sleep.
Also, i wanted to tell you that she likes to sleep with full lights on. If I am with her then a small lamp is ok.
Her mental state, and moods are same as before. Don't see any changes in there.

I would appreciate if you can also answer this thread about my husband, please.

Dr. Sameer,

Do you think Sulphur 200C is working for her? I have seen in your other posts that you always say to dissolve the pellets in water. So I thought it might be important for you to know that I had given her 3 pellets just like that, other doctor didn't tell me to dissolve it.
Her face has turned red today, I guess because of some sun exposure.

Thanks again.
Pooja

We will wait for 2 weeks, and then pass a judgement. The remedy will work fine even if given directly.

Dear Dr. Sameer,

One of my cousin is coming from India this weekend. Do you suggest if i should have some homeopathic medicines for keep sake at home? I was thinking I can request him if he can bring some for me. Can you give me some names which are useful to have at home, which can later be used for my family, and specially my daughter. Right now all i have at home now is Sulphur 200CK.

Thanks,
Pooja

Dear Dr. Sameer,
3 weeks are over today, after I gave my daughter one dose(3 palletts) of Sulphur 200C.
Her skin has been craking a bit behind the knees, and inside her elbows. She also has been itching all over, mostly in the nights, and waking up in the night because of uncontrollable itch. I put eucerin lotion on her. I didn't put any steroid cream, and didn't give any anti-histamine syrups during this time.
Her skin has been peeling over from all over her body, and it has been a lot around her neck. After peeling the skin looks very sensitive and pinkish red in color.
She also has been developing some very small pus filled blisters all over her body too. They keep going away and come back on different places. They are so tiny that you see it only if you look closely, not many of them, like few(4-5) on her knees, 2-3 on her wrists, 7-8 on the sides of her tummy.
Her mind and moods has been pretty much same as always, I didn't see any change in there.
Her constipation is also the same.
Let me know if you need more information.
Thanks a lot.

Dear Dr. Sameer,
I hope she doesn't have symtomps of any kind of psoriasis. Please suggest if we still wait & watch if Sulphur is still working, or another dose should be given.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Pooja,

Please give her 3 doses of LACHESIS 30c for 1 day ONLY, and report in 2 weeks after that.

One dose is 2 pellets dissolved on tongue. Space the doses by 2 hours.The dose is to be given for 1 day only and from next day just wait and watch.

Make sure nothing enters the mouth 30 mins before and 30 mins after each dose.
 
sameervermani last decade
Dear Dr. Sameer,
Thanks for your reply. I also forgot to mention that since there's so much skin peeling in last 3 weeks, she doesn't like to take bath any more. She has always loved to take baths/shower before. Now she covers her neck when I pour water on her, as I mentioned before that most of the skin peeled from her neck. Water hurts her on the out-breaks of her skin at all other places also.
Should Lachesis be given to antidote Sulphur, or it is for another purpose?

I sincerely believe in your knowledge and feel so lucky to have found you here by God's grace.

Thanks a lot.
Pooja
 
to_be_cured last decade
Dear Dr. Sameer,
I was just googling about Lachesis, and thought I should let you know that she doesn't have any problem in wearing tight clothing. She actually likes to wear tight leggings almost everyday. She doesn't like denim, she says its hard, she prefers soft clothes.
 
to_be_cured last decade
Dear Dr. Sameer,

I started the Lachesis remedy for my daughter today. I'll keep you updated on her progress.

Thanks.
Pooja
 
to_be_cured last decade
The doses are to be given for 1 day only. No more doses from next day.
 
sameervermani last decade
Dear Dr. Sameer,
Thanks for your response. I gave her 3 doses (2 pallets) of Lachesis today at 11:30AM, 2:00PM, 4:30PM. I will not repeat this again.
Since this evening slight cough & wheezing has started for her. Can i give her Boiron Chestal Honey if she has problem in sleeping? I used to give this to her during coughs before.
Sorry if I am taking too much of your time and attention, I understand you have to take many other cases too.

Thanks,
Pooja
 
to_be_cured last decade
Dear Dr. Sameer,
Updating after 2 weeks after Lachesis was given.
First 2 days she had slight fever 99-100, but it went away without giving tylenol.
Her mind is pretty much same, I did't see any change, behavior is also same as before. She is mostly happy, wants to make her own decisions. Just one thing different that she has been biting or pinching a little bit to us not a lot. One day she was hitting us when she was not allowed to do one thing, since then she has been hitting a little bit on & off, but stops when we tell her too. Its very little and not that bothersome.
Her skin -
red sensitiveness is gone, and she is not saying no for showers any more. Skin peeling has almost stopped too. She still has small pimples just 4-5 all over her body, they keep gping away and pop-up at new locations. Her face gets red sometimes. Her itchiness is same, she still gets up 3-4 times a night because of itch and I put lotion on her 2-3 times during the day. Wounds on her wrists, elbows, inside of elbows and inside on knees are better than before, smaller in size and less deep. She itches but stops before it bleeds, it was just once or twice with very little blood.
Her constipation is also the same, as before she still has fear to pass stools.

Let me know if you have questions.

Thank you so much.
Pooja
